Wireless router on but not working

I have an actiontec gt704wg... I set it up this morning- it was working but now the internet light is off, and the router shows in my network as on but I can't access the web with it! I've reset it, turned it off and on, what else do I need to do to get the Dang blasted internet light on so I can surf on my own dime and not my neighbor's?!

    It's a wireless modem router- it's specificially for accessing the internet via a wireless connection- how did it become 'bridged' suddenly? I don't think that I'm supposed to have to dial through the computers once this thing is set up. I didn't have to all day until it went bonk on me.

Who is your ISP? I belive what you have is a modem router. If the interney light is not lit then it only mean that the actiontec is bridged and you need to use a dialer on your pc to connect to your ISP. If the internet light is lit, no need for a dialer just connect it straight to your pc and check your internet.

When power switch is turned on the Power light is rapidly flashing & the 4 Ethernet lights are flashing. The box is Actiontec GT704wg

I do not have a solution to the problem. However, I am having the same problem. This morning the Actiontec GT704WG power and ethernet lights were rapidly flashing. The modem was non-functional. I could not even connect to the modem through the browser to see if I could find a problem.

The problem lasted a couple of hours. Then all of a sudden the modem started working again. I won't be able to tell if the problem recurs until I restart the modem. And if the problem does occur again, I won't be able to connect to the internet.

Actiontec GT704WG doesnt connect to internet

HI! all your computer is connected except for one, you are connected to to the local network but cant get an internet connection, I dont see any problem with your wireless connection bcoz you are connected to the lan, check the security settings of your browser on your windows vista, go to internet option and security, lower it down to medium security, so that you can access the internet or try using other browser like firefox or google chrome.. check your firewall settings as well on your windows vista..

Got a used actiontec dsl router gt704wg and cant make it connect?

Go to http://www.actiontec.com/support/index.php and see if you can download the manual. You will need it to know how to set it up with the information provided by your DSL ISP.

No wireless connection after powercycle

Sounds to me as if the Actiontec GT704WG has died. If it is still under warranty, get it serviced. If it is not under warranty, You can try to find en electronic friend to take a look at it. If you do not have such a friend, Maybe someone else here can help you. But you might want to consider a new unit.
